Gas Cans

[Ronan]

Really not sure where to put this but here goes: I need green gas or w/e its called since i'm getting my first GBB :P

I live in Montreal, any idea where to get it?

Thanks

P.S: No i'm not interested in duster cans or propane tanks.

Try Ebay.ca I got a package of 3 green gas cans, for a very reasonible price.

si je me trompe pas, j'en ai vue chez wall-mart!!!

Gotta ask, why are you not interested in propane adapter/tank, dude?

Importing green gas cans can be trouble/expensive. If you really must, I think Gad (Surplus D'Armee Snowdon) still has some. But be prepared to pay out the ass.

Ya man, propane +adapter +silicone oil!
Dont be like me and purchase 6 cans of green gas for a retarded price!
Im down to my last 2, almost done, almost done.

Because i was told that WA 1911's really don't like propane. And since the person that told me that is very very very knowledgeable about airsoft, i'm gonna listen to him.

Duster Can would be nice, but when ever i go to a pc place they are sold out or cost $7 a bottle.

And.. yeah i don't use ebay *grumbles over past nasty experiences*.

Ah hell ill try propane... at worst ill buy new parts. Where can i get the adapter?

[Drake]

WAs dont like propane. And Green Gas is also propane. (i.e., WA don't like green gas, either.)

Generally propane will eventually damage your WA gun (they're well designed but made for duster/blue gas).

With some upgrades, however, you can run the WAs on propane/green, as long as the mags handle it (my 1911 mags do). Upgrade the recoil spring, and/or get a flow restrictor from AI. (that's assuming you're using a stock [plastic] gun)

Ok just paid the $40ish for the little orange plastic adapter and some silicone oil. Can that Silicone Oil be use for something else on the airsoft gun? (I think i recall cleaning, or lubing or something?

[Drake]

You can use it to clean/lube inner barrels and lube hopup rubbers.

And for comparison's sake, the last time I checked Surplus D'Armee Snowdon wanted something like $35 for a can of green gas (that might blow up in your 'Stangs trunk if you leave it out in the sun -- it happened to a dude in the UK, blew up in the back of his SUV/pickup)

If you think that's expensive, have you ever looked into how much a can of green gas costs. lol

No But with the adapter, a metal slide (that i need to get) and one of those better recoil spring (also need to get) it should be fine.

What gun is it for, btw?
